>> i think if enough nevadans tell harry reid they want something done about assault weapons, harry reid will do something about assault weapons. the bottom line is it's a matter of public opinion. it's a matter of what the public is going to demand. the nra does not represent the public. they don't even represent most nra members. so i don't think that harry reid or anyone else needs to be timid around these legislative bullies. i'm hoping that we go for it, we go big. of course, if we go big, we still probably can get some good things, maybe we can't get an assault weapon ban now but i think that eventually, we can even get that. of course, let me tell you, i own a gun. i don't want to see people's guns taken away. i'm against gun confiscation 100%, believe in the second amendment, but i believe we can have a balance between gun violence provision -- prevention and the right to own a gun. that's the reason why i think the president released the photo, to show that he's not anti-gun, he's against murder. he's against these extreme shootings that have happened and believes that we can ha
